Hi Leela! It would be very special to share your India experiences...I hope we
will be able to do so in a personal setting, rather than at a rehearsal? My
assumption is that most of us have only experienced India in the news, movies
or via a travelogue, etc., and that your personal adventures would be real, and
totally far more informative and interesting. Could this be a possible scenario
some time after your arrival back in Maine?
Sorry to be pessimistic about 8/5, but I think it is too much to tackle on such
short notice, especially without a workable number(and support) of singers.
However, I will remain open about the request and will keep re-evaluating as
the facts reveal themselves. Love, Bette Lee

Your concerns are appreciated. Certainly the NLS board will provide music and
leadership. With Leela out of the country we are investigating finding a
summer director to see us through this event. We will only have time to
rehearse a couple of times and I believe we will also be open to any singer
with some experience and will aim to sing pretty basic music-certainly not
our past repertoire with the exception of "The Storm". Thank you for your
words of encouragement. I think it would be a lot of fun to be involved in
supporting the beach to beacon runners.
More to come. Russ Roy and Anna are working on this and are waiting to hear
back from some folks. Look for more info in the coming days. We will not move
forward with this and less we feel we can do a good job.
Best,
Anna

Subject: [northernlightssingers] Aug 5 Beach to Beacon
Northern lights singers has been invited to sing during the beach to beacon
race on August 5. We're going to have to do some quick work if we're going
to pull this off. Is there any interest in participating? I don't think my
first email went out so I'm in sending a second one to the free list. Please
respond ASAP if you can.
Thanks,
Anna
